Surprised no talk of the slowroll put on Bax before he went out.

    Courtesy of gutshot. For those that haven't followed their reports this guy has been purposely stalling every hand since yesterday. He has the clock called on him instantly every time and all the players hate him. Not to mention he's been a complete cock about it. Then he pulls this crap.

    Cliff 'Johnny Bax' Josephy had pushed all in preflop and Valentino Morella began to take his usual fifteen minutes to decide. Cliff called the clock after only a few seconds, knowing that Valentino would take forever.


    Valentino Morella...

    Valentino studied his cards and said,''Since it's you, fine I'll call, I'm all in.' Valentino showed his cards to Chad Brown who smiled.

    ''Maybe I'll get lucky here, maybe I'll get lucky.... I have the worst hand, but maybe I'll get lucky.''

    Cliff, thinking he had the best hand, flipped up his AJ. Valentino continued his act,

    ''Well... maybe I'll get lucky,'' and showed his pocket aces! No help arrived for Cliff and it was massive hit to his stack.

    As the dust was still way off settling, Cliff said to Valentino,''You're a classy guy.'' To which Valentino replied,''It's because you bring out the gentleman in me.''

    Roland chuckled,''That's the slowest roll I've ever seen.'' Valentino continues to impress the crowd...CUP SOCCER anyone!

    <table bgcolor="#eaeaef" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="484"><tbody><tr><td width="75">Date / Time:</td><td>2006-04-23 04:05PM</td></tr><tr><td>Title:</td><td>Valentino Morella Eliminated 13th ($146,460)</td></tr><tr><td valign="top">Log:</td><td>James Van Alstyne raises to $240,000 preflop. Valentino Morella calls, leaving himself only $105,000 behind. Espen Saltnes then moves all in and Alstyne folds. Morella calls and shows Qh-Jc. Saltnes has 10c-10s and the flop comes Js-9c-7s and Morella takes the lead. The Ah on the turn helps neither player but the 8h on the river gives Saltnes a straight and the pot. Valentino Morella is eliminated in 13th place.</td></tr></tbody></table>

    Clearly he is an expert poker player as well.. LOL at his play here.. what a donk - must be rich and have gotten v lucky...

    I also find it irritating that people are chuckling and smiling at this lack of etiquette but i guess they are trying to keep themselves from strangling him..

    yea douche baggery at its finest. he waas taking 5 mins per hand supposedly awhile ago when there was no need to stall.

    on another note in a cp interview with patrik antonius he said the blinds have gotten so high its a crapshoot because everyone was stalling
